Why was transportation vital to J.J. McAlester?

History
1 answer:
posledela3 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u>

Transportation vital to J.J. McAlester because B) It made the transport of his resources possible.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Known as the father of Eastern Oklahoma, JJ McAlester is often attributed to the thriving coal mining industry in the Pittsburgh county. JJ McAlester in 1869, having known of the coal outcroppings in the area, opened a store. It was thus necessary for the town to have excellent connectivity to other parts of the State.

The construction of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway proved to be extremely rewarding for McAlester as the coal city was now connected to major hubs of trade and business. This ensured that all his resources could be sold to other cities rather than being bound to the small town of McAlester.

Later the east-west railroad proved to be even more beneficial as the same served the town’s rich coal fields. Transporting the coal across the country, the railways significantly improved the economy of the town.

Why was the german blitzkrieg so effective?
lara [203]
The German blitzkrieg was very effective because it was basically hit-and-run tactics. Blitzkrieg meaning lightning warfare in German. The Germans would hide out and wait for the enemy to go into their "stomach" and then strike all around them, and move back or forward or wherever the Germans were to go, and prepare for the next attack. By the time reinforcements came, all they found were the dead bodies of their allies.

Controversy surrounding gibbons versus Ogden was is the weather the states federal government have the right to regulate navigat
igor_vitrenko [27]

The Gibbons v. Ogden case is a 1824 precedent of the United States Supreme Court, that gave Congress the control of interstate commerce.

Under a state law, New York State had granted Livingston and Fulton exclusive rights to use and navigate all waterways in the state. Gibbons arbitrarily initiated a passenger transport business between New York State and New Jersey, and Ogden sued Gibbons in violation of his exclusive business right.

Gibbons operated a steamer that ran between New York State and New Jersey State. Because of this, the restrictive regulations imposed by the State of New York were harmful to him. He argued then that it was a power of the Congress to control trade when several states were involved, so the decision of the State of New York went against this precept. The Supreme Court established that, indeed, it was the power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce and that the law of the State of New York was in violation of federal antitrust laws that prohibited monopoly.
